Cannot login admin/admin

Added by Bevan Agard about 6 years ago

Good day

I am new to OpenProject and I really want to try it.  I have downloaded and installed the Community Edition on a Centos 7 server.  I followed all the steps to the letter and all seemed to have gone smoothly,,, up until I tried to login for the first time.  I get the error 

The username or password is incorrect.

I followed the instructions found in the forum about changing the password manually and that didn't work.  (I've noticed that when you find_by(login: 'admin'), it has no record of any failed login attempts.  Don't know if that is normal.

i cannot get the db:seed to work for me. However does that apply in my case since I'm using Centos and every time that has been mentioned as a solution it has been a Debian or Ubuntu server?

Please anyone could you help me get this working I think this application is the solution to my project management needs.

I'm using the latest release of OpenProject with a MySQL backend

If you did not successfully run rake db:seed the admin user will not have been created so it is obvious that you will not be able to log in. What error do you get when running db:seed rake task?

Best,

Oliver
